wow, the list is way too long.
Anything by N.T. Wright, Malcolm Gladwell, Lawrence Kushner, Richard Rohr or other great religion/theology/spirituality. And once I start reading a great novel, I never put it down.
What would you suggest?
Annoy – assume that you know what people expectations are.
Charm – Americano. No Room.
That's a real man's drink
Dude. That is like the opposite of this metrosexuals life. Love it
I wouldn't want to hazard a suggestion on the religion / theology / spirituality books. As far as novels, the best one I have read recently was Pillars of the Earth by Ken Follet. It was simply amazing. Who would have ever thought that a book about the construction of a cathedral would be so captivating?
I finally read Pillars recently. I don't like that time period so I put it off for a while. Once I picked it up I could NOT put it down. I still don't know why it captured me so.

Seriously. That would like me showing up at Buckhead and acting like your best friend. CREEPY. I've had people go, OH! I know you! Sooo… how's life? Um… uh. Okay. And you are????? Doesn't happen so much now that I'm at a smaller church… but creeeepy!

Annoy: Telling me that after years of infertility, "At least you're having fun trying".
Charm: Use one of my ideas.
or all the women in the bible eventually had kids … implying its a faith problem on your part … or I had a dream you were pregnant … or the I know how you feel we were infertile for 3 months after our 3rd kid, when you have 4 (excuse me, that's not infertile, that's impatient) … OK hit a nerve… people don't get it.
Charm: Get me more time with my very amazing adopted son, who is more awesome than I could imagine.
Amen, preach. We were eventually very thankfully blessed with a child after 4 1/2 years, and we are now encountering secondary infertility for 3 years. So now I get the guilt trip talks when I talk about my desire for another. "At least you have one." Yes, sorry I'd like another.

There is a story behind the drink though… my other coffee choice is a Quad Venti Toffeenut Mocha, but one day I paid in cash and was shocked to find that my $5 bill wasn't enough to cover it! So I started trying different options, and in the process found I just love a good Americano.

How to annoy me- question me about why I am adopting internationally instead of taking care of "our own" while you ignore your biological children. Make judgements about my child's birthmother and assume I will join right in in bashing her. Tell me something about adoption based on the last LifeTime movie you saw.
